Ryker was honestly thinking about just flooring it- like, sorry cops, you can't catch me! He drove with one hand and held her hand with the other. "I wouldn't know. I will never have to deal with that pain." He answered. "I don't know. We're almost there." He murmured quietly, pulling into the hospital parking lot. The rest of the time was a blur of rushing and worrying and him getting quite angry when the doctors shooed him out.

(But nooo they can't shoo him out! She needs support!!! Ahhhhh!!!)

When she was given a room and the doctor came in she couldn't even think straight. (Blah blah blah. Baby Pyper is born. Yay) After a few of the most painful minutes of Abby's life, a tiny child was laid into her shaking arms. Tears of pure joy crept down her cheeks. She was holding her baby. Her daughter. The nurses cleaned Pyper up and returned her to her mother. "here you go" Abby smiled and held Pyper as she looked up at her. "Welcome to the world baby Pyper" she looked up at Ryker with a smile and wordlessly lifted her to his chest

(But that's what they do! Kind of)

-

Ryker ALMOST ended up busting into the room, but the doctors opened it as soon as he was about to. He all but ran into the room to see Abby holding a tiny precious baby girl. "Oh Abby..." He whispered, bringing his arms down to cradle the small bundle of joy, his eyes shining. "Pyper.. little Pyper....."

Really? I wouldn't know)

-

Abby smiled and more tears fell. "I'm so happy. Words can't even describe it" she watched Ryker and the little baby girl. "I'm tired..." her eyelids were drooping before she could even finish her sentence. "Having a baby is hard work"

Ryker stared at the little girl. She had beautiful hazel eyes, just like her mother. "I know. I'm happy too. So happy. And just rest for now. The doctors will take care of everything." He said soothingly.

Abby smiled and put her hand on Rykers arm. It slowly slid down his forearm before she pulled it over her her flat stomach and fell asleep at his voice.

Ryker watched Abby for a couple moments until she fell asleep. He cradled Pyper for a little longer before giving the baby to the doctor, who weighed her and did everything.

Abby woke up a few minutes later when the doctor came in to check up on her and Pyper. She handed the baby to her to nurse. When Pyper was done, she sat her up and patter her back lightly to get her to burp. Abby sat up and looked up at Ryker. She patted the spot beside her on the bed. "Sit" she demanded softly. "Please"

Ryker had sat down right beside her on a chair and didn't move. A little while later Abby woke up. He lifted his head slightly and stood quickly, walking over. "How are you feeling?" He asked quietly, sitting down gently.

"I'm feeling like a new person. How I have to actually be responsible " she grinned weakly and rocked baby Pyper to sleep. "How do YOU feel?"
